Spare Tire Carrier For 8 Inch Wheels On A 2 Inch Square Frame

Question

Question:

I need a spare tire carrier for my trailer. the wheel is 8 inches, 5 bolt design with 4.5 inch spacing. the carrier will mount on a 2inch square frame member and if it can have a rise that would be preferable. i was looking at the Fulton high mount Item # FSTC1000301, but the video said the wheel needs to be at least 10 inches. Any suggestions?

This Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier # FHDSTC0101 Fits 4, 5 and 6 lug wheels up to 16-1/2 inches in diameter. This is a measurement of the wheel and not the whole diameter of the wheel and tire. It provides a 4-3/4 inch lift and fits trailer tongues up to 3 inches wide and 5 inches tall. Seems like this is perfect for what you're wanting!

Answer 6

Your math is correct in your trailer weight load example. If a fully-loaded tandem axle trailer weighs 4000-lbs then each of the 4 tires will bear 1/4th of that load, or 1000-lbs. In this case a tire rated for 1300-lbs would provide a good safety…

We have an aluminum 7 spoke 14 inch trailer wheel that looks pretty close to the wheel in the picture you sent us, but it's not an exact match. For that wheel you would want the part #AM22329. For a 205/75R14 you can use #AM10234 or tire #AM10229…
